A Couple of Projects

The old pretty blue shutters were fading, so a "new look" was needed...BEFORE Above

AFTER with the new Black shutters. Hubby put them up and I think it's a richer look...happy with the results...

I've finally painted my bed side tables and gray was the color choice. I see in the finished photo that I put the drawer pulls on upside down! LOL!! I painted both pieces.

I also added some pink in the room and it is finally feeling "right".

Worked my duty day today. It was busy! Tomorrow laundry mat with the rugs as it is 1/2 off machine washing. One washer for my rugs...saves time and $$ doing it there. Thursday is Bible Study Fellowship and the study is Revelation. Go here for a class in your area www.bsfinternational.org
I've never study the book of Revelation and looking forward to it.

The garage is all cleaned out and the SUV can park in it...speaking of the SUV, a golf ball hit my front windshield and I'll be getting a new one this week. First time any broken windows in the 11 years we have lived here!

Having a perfect weather week...almost time to rake the leaves. They haven't all turned and looking forward to that.

You have been busy!!! I think the black shutters look really good and make the widows look so much bigger! I love what you did with the nightstands...pretty color. Your bedroom looks so sophisticated! Have a good time at Bible Study!

Love the black shutters. They really pop! Your nightstands look really good. The book of Revelation kind of scares me. I've gone thru several Bible studies on that book and get something new each time.

That's so funny that you put the drawer pulls on upside/down, but I say, if you like it, keep it that way!! I love the shutters painted the black, very rich looking! Enjoy the rest of the week! Blessings, Cindy

Hi Deb, love the shutters in black. They look rich and just pop. Your night stand looks beautiful in grey. I have to smile about the upside down drawer pulls. I do that all the time.Your room is beautiful and I love the pink with the grey. So pretty.Have a blessed day. cm

The black shutters really made a difference - classy!Grey is a color we're using a lot on painted furniture. Did you leave your pulls upside down or change them? :)So many of my friends in BSF! (It's a Bible study I've not participated in yet I hear it requires some significant study and effort! What a great book to study in depth - Revelation.)

Pink and gray are so lovely together...kind of like Doris Day and Cary Grant, if colors were people! I just wanted you to know how much I admire you. Even though I don't know you personally, you are one of the most kind and genuine people I have met online. I wish you the best this happy fall day!

The shutters look great, Deb...really pop now! And I would have never known the pulls were on upside down lol...the nightstand turned out beautifully! Crazy about your windshield...do you ever get golf balls in the yard?

I love the black shutters and the gray end tables. Very nicely done. I think the upside down pulls look kinda fun! My church is not having the usual Fall ladies bible study and I am so upset. Looking for one. Thanks for the link!

Debbie, The shutters do give your home a fresh look. I wish shutters would never fade. You were so brave to paint the night stands. ..but wow they turned out beautiful. I love that color. I always hated washing rugs...better in the big washer though. Blessings, xoxo,Susiep.s. hope your sister is doing well. I think of her.

Deb-Those shutters look GREAT! You are like me- have LOTS going on all the time..but it is happy fall stuff and okay. Your nightstands turned out great- upside down hardware and all. I just painted a little stand, too- white with blue interior. Hope you have a great night- xo Diana

I like the way you painted your bed side tables. That touch of pink does look perfect! Happy October to you. By the way, I went to my first estate sale last week to find stuff for my Etsy shop. It was so fun. I can see how a person might get addicted.
